What a news in the morning!! Bomb found in Bangalore Trivandrum flight. Great! Police say that it could have been a Kandahar model hijack plan. Too good!
They do have a series of security checks, but how did someone manage to get it into the flight? As always, almost all the security measures we have in our country always serve the purpose of troubling the public and fail when it really matters.
Bomb was purportedly made in Kerala. And the officials think that it could have been transported into the flight along with the checked in baggage when the flight was at Trivandrum. If someone could do such a thing, why do we have a check in?
Officials still have explanations. They say at Tvm airport, there is a little distance between where the baggage is scanned and the check in. So, it is possible for someone to slip in something in between that. That distance existed before also, right? Couldn't that been solved before? Do we need to wait till someone jeopardizes the lives of so many passengers?
Now, after the scanning of the baggage is done, don't they seal it? (I don't exactly know. I haven't been on a flight before.) Or do they seal it in such a way that still someone can slip something in?
Whatever, these things are beyond our control. But it looks like Mallus are catching up. A hijack plan, though they missed out this time.
I remember a newspaper report about the security of the railway stations in Mumbai which I read a few months back. A reporter passed through the metal detector in front of CST with a bag full of weapons and the the damn thing didn't respond at all. When the reporter talked to the policeman, he pleaded to him, not to mention his name in the article.
Public can watch, and wait for some action.
